Taylor Swift Still Holds Both No. 1 Country Spots

Taylor Swift is so firmly settled into the top of the charts, she might
as well start planting a garden. This is the third week at No. 1 for her album, Red, and the sixth for her single,
“We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”

And,
yes, Red continues to crown the Billboard 200 all-genres chart, too, as it has from the start. This past week,Red sold 196,225 copies, bringing its total sales, by Nielsen SoundScan’s count, to 1.7 million units.

There
are two new albums to report: John Denver’s The Classic Christmas Album
(entering at No. 54) and the multi-artist package Country Christmas: 10 Great Songs (No. 64). Returning to the chart
are Joey Rory’s His and Hers (No. 73) and Lyle
Lovett‘s Release Me (No. 74).
